R/C Gulfstream GIV Prototype Takes Flight

For jet junkies that enjoy flying on a smaller scale...

Yep. I've flown a couple of RC jets over the years, but nothing compares to the challenge of flying RC helis, especially at today's 3D levels, i.e. backwards inverted flight or pirouetting circuits. Below is one of my speed machines. It's an Align 700 DFC inside of a BlackShark fuselage. Top speed is around 140 mph, which is slow compared to the pros with purpose built helis pushing the 180 mph threshold.
